User Creation In portal Using NWDS

Question

Hello Experts
Is there any way we can create a job in SAP Netweaver Portal using NWDS for the user creation.
Any pointers will be extremely helpful as I am new to this.
I am using SAP Netweaver 7.3 SP 09.
Thanks

Hi,
You can use the sample code.You can create an  Abstract Portal component in  NWDS and write the required code inside of it.
Users can be created with the UserFactory newUser() method.
IUserMaint represents a modifiable user object. You must issue
        a commit() in order to actually create the user.
An associated account needs to be created for the User with
        newUserAccount() using the UniqueID of the new User.
Take care to delete the user if an error occurs (catch the
        appropriate exception and handle it).
// Create User
String uid = "testuser01";
IUserMaint newUser = UMFactory.getUserFactory().newUser(uid);
newUser.setFirstName("Test");
newUser.setLastName("User");
newUser.setEmail("[email protected]");
newUser.save();
newUser.commit();
try
// Create User Account
IUserAccount uacc = UMFactory.getUserAccountFactory().
newUserAccount(uid,newUser.getUniqueID());
uacc.setPassword("secret");
uacc.save();
uacc.commit();
// NOTE: productive passwords cannot be set if the
// account is created in a SAP System
// continue process by trying to set password flag…
// Now try to modify password change flag for the new user
try
IUserAccount uacc = UMFactory.getUserAccountFactory().
getMutableUserAccount(uacc.getUniqueID());
uacc.setPasswordChangeRequired(false);
uacc.save();
uacc.commit();
catch (UMException ex)
//trace warning: “Password is not productive and has to
// changed during the first logon”.
catch (UMException umex)
UMFactory.getUserFactory().deleteUser(newUser.getUniqueID());
//trace error: “User cannot be created because of an
// error which occurred during the creation of the
// corresponding account object”
